At ComiCONN last year someone had brought an RC Artoo Detoo. There’s a whole group of people who dedicate their spare time to making copies of R2 and his Astromech cousins, and I had the opportunity to talk to one of them. This was the video I was trying to post on Thursday. Enjoy.
Again if you’re thinking about making your own Astromech, try astromech.net
